SF Writing

Beyond infinity; that’s the issue. A funny, sarcastic line that is suggestive that some, maybe a lot, of science fiction writing ….. sucks. I’ve embarked on this little project to read SF looking for examples of “post-literacy” (examples of literacy practices that extend current practices or are wholly new; it’s background work for the PhD I’m undertaking).

I know I’ve still got lots to read and will undoubtedly find some good writers along the way. I’ve just started to re-read Neuromancer (William Gibson, 1984) and it is has startling and wonderfully written as I remember it many years ago. Review to follow soon.
